I don't know the Boston area very well but find it hard to believe that your can't get a good pain ordinare (sp?). I have gotten excellent bread in Providence RI if you feel like traveling an hour or so and the number of bakeries in NJ making excellent french and italian type breads is astronomical. The best bread I even had was at a dirt cheap Greek restaurant in Baltimore; crispy medium thickness crust, moist almost dense interior with a real wheat flavor (no bromated flour in that bread!). Yes, I agree about whole wheat breads, almost always oversweetened. Try Providence Cheese, his bread is made from stone ground whole durum wheat. -- Jerry Natowitz ihnp4!houxm!hropus!jin The Master Baker
